Securing low-cost pumping energy from a large efficient thermal generating plant should make it possible to maintain a rate for agricultural water at approximately $10 an acre-foot. Bureau of Reclamation technicians estimate that a municipal and industrial rate of $55 an acre-foot or a lesser rate per acre foot plus an ad valorem tax of approximately six-tenths of a mill would be required in Pinal, Maricopa and Pima Counties to achieve payout. Various combinations of the two alternatives also are possible. "These decisions should be made in closest consultation with the State and local people as we see it," Secretary Udall said.
"The success we have achieved in securing a new high level of cooperation between public and private utilities in the region has made possible this new approach to water supply problems," he continued.
"Details of the proposed legislation and the necessary reports will receive immediate attention. We expect to be able to supply all necessary information to Congress by mid-February," Udall commented.
